Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Abgasturbolader gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to an exhaust gas turbocharger according to the preamble of claim 1.

Ein derartiger Abgasturbolader ist beispielsweise aus der EP 1 734 231 A1 bekannt. Die Montage des Verdichtergehäuses am Lagergehäuse erfolgt bei einem gattungsgemäßen Turbolader mittels einer Befestigungseinrichtung in Form einer Verschraubung, was einen zeitintensiven Arbeitsschritt darstellt. Denn zum einen ist eine Mehrzahl von Innengewinden vorzusehen und die Verschraubung erfolgt unter Verwendung geeigneter Werkzeuge. Weiterhin zeigt EP 2 090 755 einen Turbolader nach dem Oberbegriff vom Anspruch 1.Such an exhaust gas turbocharger is for example from the EP 1 734 231 A1 known. The assembly of the compressor housing on the bearing housing takes place in a generic turbocharger by means of a fastening device in the form of a screw, which is a time-consuming step. Because on the one hand a plurality of internal threads should be provided and the screwing is done using suitable tools. Further shows EP 2 090 755 a turbocharger according to the preamble of claim 1.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen Abgasturbolader der im Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1 angegebenen Art zu schaffen, der eine Vereinfachung der Montage des Verdichtergehäuses am Lagergehäuse und eine erhebliche Beschleunigung dieser Montage ermöglicht.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an exhaust gas turbocharger specified in the preamble of claim 1 way, which allows a simplification of the assembly of the compressor housing on the bearing housing and a significant acceleration of this assembly.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1.The solution of this object is achieved by the features of claim 1.

Dadurch, dass die erste Befestigungseinrichtung als Steck-Dreh-Verbindungseinrichtung ausgebildet ist, die zur Montage lediglich einen Steckvorgang und einen sich daran anschließenden Drehvorgang zur Verriegelung der beiden Bauteile erfordert, ergibt sich die angestrebte Beschleunigung und Vereinfachung des Montagevorganges, wobei zudem keine Werkzeuge erforderlich sind. Ferner ergibt eine derartige Befestigungseinrichtung die Möglichkeit einer voll maschinellen Montage des Verdichtergehäuses am Lagergehäuse.The fact that the first fastening device is designed as a plug-in rotary connection device, which only requires a plug-in operation and an adjoining rotational operation for locking the two components, results in the desired acceleration and simplification of the assembly process, wherein in addition no tools are required , Furthermore, such a fastening device provides the possibility of a fully mechanical assembly of the compressor housing on the bearing housing.

Die Unteransprüche haben vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung zum Inhalt.The dependent claims have advantageous developments of the invention to the content.

Die erfindungsgemäße Steck-Dreh-Verbindungseinrichtung ist ähnlich einem Bajonettverschluss aufgebaut und kann zwei Verschlussringe mit entsprechenden Riegelzähnen aufweise, welche am Verdichtergehäuse bzw. Lagergehäuse anbringbar sind.The plug-in rotary connecting device according to the invention is constructed similar to a bayonet lock and can have two locking rings with corresponding locking teeth, which can be attached to the compressor housing or bearing housing.

Hierbei ist es möglich, die Verschlussringe mit ihren Riegelzähnen durch eine Fräs- und Drehbearbeitung aus den Rohteilen des Lagergehäuses bzw. des Verdichtergehäuses herauszuarbeiten.It is possible to work out the locking rings with their locking teeth by a milling and turning from the blanks of the bearing housing and the compressor housing.

Zum anderen können die Verschlussringe jedoch auch als separate Teile ausgebildet sein, die nach ihrer Fertigung z.B. über einen Pressverband oder durch Schrumpfen am Lagergehäuse bzw. dem Verdichtergehäuse angebracht werden können.On the other hand, however, the closure rings can also be designed as separate parts which, after their manufacture, e.g. can be attached via a press fit or by shrinking on the bearing housing or the compressor housing.

Im Falle des Verdichtergehäuses ist es vorzugsweise auch möglich, einen direkten Verguss des Verschlussringes mit dem Verdichtergehäuse zu realisieren.In the case of the compressor housing, it is preferably also possible to realize a direct encapsulation of the closure ring with the compressor housing.

Die erforderliche Pressung zwischen dem Verdichtergehäuse und dem Lagergehäuse kann über eine Auflaufschräge auf der jeweiligen Kontaktfläche der Verzahnung der beiden Hälften erreicht werden.The required pressure between the compressor housing and the bearing housing can be achieved via a ramp on the respective contact surface of the teeth of the two halves.

Bei einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist es zur Sicherung des am Lagergehäuse montierten Verdichtergehäuses möglich, einen Sicherungsstift vorzusehen, der entweder mittels Federkraft oder manuell eingepresst werden kann, um ein Lösen der Verbindung zwischen dem Lagergehäuse und dem Verdichtergehäuse zu verhindern. Um einen erfolgreichen Montageprozess überprüfen zu können, kann dieser Sicherungsstift mit einem Indikator ausgestattet sein, um die erfolgreiche Montage anzuzeigen. Hierbei ragt der Indikator bei nicht erfolgter Montage des Sicherungsstiftes aus dem Gehäuse heraus, während er bei erfolgter Montage in das Gehäuse zurückgezogen ist. Diese Art der Anzeige der Montage ist auch maschinell überprüfbar.In a particularly preferred embodiment, in order to secure the compressor housing mounted on the bearing housing, it is possible to provide a locking pin which can be either spring-biased or manually pressed to prevent disconnection of the bearing housing from the compressor housing. To verify a successful assembly process, this locking pin may be equipped with an indicator to indicate successful assembly. In this case, the indicator protrudes out of the housing in case of non-successful mounting of the locking pin, while it is withdrawn in the case of successful assembly in the housing. This type of display of the assembly is also verifiable by machine.

In Fig. 1 ist in aufgebrochener perspektivischer Darstellung eine mögliche Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Abgasturboladers 1 dargestellt, der ein Turbinengehäuse 2 und ein Verdichtergehäuse 3 aufweist, die an den jeweils benachbarten Enden eines Lagergehäuses 28 montiert sind. Hierbei ist eine erste Befestigungseinrichtung 19 zur Fixierung des Lagergehäuses 28 am Verdichtergehäuse 3 und eine zweite Befestigungseinrichtung 20 zur Fixierung des Lagergehäuses 28 am Turbinengehäuse 2 jeweils schematisch vereinfacht dargestellt. Der Aufbau der ersten Befestigungseinrichtung 19 wird im Detail anhand der nachfolgenden Fig. 2 bis 5 erläutert werden.In Fig. 1 is a broken perspective view of a possible embodiment of an exhaust gas turbocharger 1 according to the invention shown, which has a turbine housing 2 and a compressor housing 3, which are mounted on the respective adjacent ends of a bearing housing 28. Here, a first fastening device 19 for fixing the bearing housing 28 on the compressor housing 3 and a second fastening device 20 for fixing the bearing housing 28 on the turbine housing 2 are each shown schematically simplified. The structure of the first fastening device 19 will be described in detail with reference to the following Fig. 2 to 5 be explained.

Alle übrigen in Fig. 1 durch die eingezeichneten Bezugsziffern identifizierten Komponenten können der beigefügten Bezugszeichenliste entnommen werden, sind jedoch für die Erläuterung der Prinzipien vorliegender Erfindung von untergeordneter Bedeutung und stellen dementsprechend optionale Komponenten des Abgasturboladers 1 dar, die nicht alle notwendigerweise vorgesehen sein müssen, jedoch vorgesehen sein können, wie sich dies aus Fig. 1 ergibt.All the rest in Fig. 1 Components identified by the reference numerals shown may be taken from the attached list of reference numerals, but are of minor importance in explaining the principles of the present invention and accordingly are optional components of the exhaust gas turbocharger 1, not all necessarily being provided, but may be provided this out Fig. 1 results.

Fig. 2 stellt eine perspektivische Darstellung des Verdichtergehäuses 3 dar, das über die zuvor erwähnte erste Befestigungseinrichtung 19 am Lagergehäuse 28 fixierbar ist, wobei Fig. 2 den fixierten Zustand darstellt. Wie in der Kurzbeschreibung der Figuren erläutert, ist das Lagergehäuse 28 in Form eines zylindrischen Lagergehäusedummys dargestellt, da die konstruktiven Einzelheiten des Lagergehäuses 28 für die Erläuterung vorliegender Erfindung nicht erforderlich sind. Fig. 2 represents a perspective view of the compressor housing 3, which is fixable on the bearing housing 28 via the aforementioned first fastening means 19, wherein Fig. 2 represents the fixed state. As explained in the brief description of the figures, the bearing housing 28 is shown in the form of a cylindrical bearing housing rubber, since the structural details of the bearing housing 28 for the explanation of the present invention are not required.

Die Befestigungseinrichtung 19 weist bei der in Fig. 2 dargestellten Ausführungsform einen ersten Verschlussring 21 auf, der am Lagergehäuse 3 fixiert ist. Die Fixierung kann auf die in der Beschreibungseinleitung erläuterten Weisen erfolgen. Der Verschlussring 21 weist eine Mehrzahl erster Riegelzähne auf, von denen ein Riegelzahn mit der Bezugsziffer 22 identifiziert ist. Die Anzahl der Riegelzähne 22 kann variieren und ist an den jeweiligen Abgasturboladertyp anpassbar. Wie sich aus der Fig. 2 ergibt, sind die Riegelzähne 22 beabstandet zueinander angeordnet, so dass sich zwischen den Riegelzähnen 22 Freiräume bzw. Durchtrittsöffnungen 26 ergeben. Wie ferner der Fig. 2 entnommen werden kann, weisen die Riegelzähne 22 nach innen auf die Rotations- bzw. Längsachse R des Abgasturboladers.The fastening device 19 has in the in Fig. 2 illustrated embodiment, a first locking ring 21 which is fixed to the bearing housing 3. The fixation can be done in the manner explained in the introduction. The locking ring 21 has a plurality of first locking teeth, of which a locking tooth is identified by the reference numeral 22. The number of latch teeth 22 may vary and is adaptable to the particular exhaust gas turbocharger type. As is clear from the Fig. 2 results, the locking teeth 22 are spaced from each other, so that there are 22 free spaces or openings 26 between the locking teeth. How further the Fig. 2 can be removed, the locking teeth 22 have inwardly on the rotational or longitudinal axis R of the exhaust gas turbocharger.

Die erste Verbindungseinrichtung 19 weist ferner einen zweiten Verschlussring 23 auf, der am Lagergehäuse 28 in der zuvor erläuterten Art und Weise fixierbar ist. Der zweite Verschlussring 23 weist eine Anzahl von zweiten Riegelzähnen auf, die derjenigen der Anzahl der ersten Riegelzähne 22 entspricht. Da in Fig. 2 der Montagezustand von Lagergehäuse 28 und Verdichtergehäuse 3 dargestellt ist, sind die zweiten Riegelzähne des zweiten Verschlussringes 23 in Fig. 2 nicht sichtbar. Einer dieser zweiten Riegelzähne 24 ist jedoch aus der Darstellung der Fig. 3 ersichtlich. Die Abstände zwischen den zweiten Riegelzähnen 24 entsprechen denjenigen der ersten Riegelzähne 22, so dass die Riegelzähne 24 durch die Durchtrittsöffnungen 26 zur Montage hindurchgesteckt werden können und nach diesem axialen Hindurchstecken zur Festlegung eine Drehbewegung erfolgt, aufgrund der sich die Riegelzähne 22 und 24 hintergreifen. Daher wird die erste Befestigungseinrichtung 19 als Steck-Dreh-Verbindungseinrichtung bezeichnet.The first connection device 19 also has a second closure ring 23, which is fixable on the bearing housing 28 in the manner explained above. The second locking ring 23 has a number of second locking teeth, which corresponds to that of the number of first locking teeth 22. Because in Fig. 2 the mounting state of bearing housing 28 and compressor housing 3 is shown, the second locking teeth of the second locking ring 23 in Fig. 2 not visible. However, one of these second locking teeth 24 is from the illustration of Fig. 3 seen. The distances between the second locking teeth 24 correspond to those of the first locking teeth 22, so that the locking teeth 24 can be inserted through the passage openings 26 for mounting and after this axial passing through for fixing a rotational movement takes place, due to the locking teeth 22 and 24 engage behind. Therefore, the first fastening device 19 is referred to as a plug-in rotary connection device.

Um die Montage weiter zu erleichtern, ist es möglich, zumindest an einer der Gruppe der Riegelzähne 22 bzw. 24 eine Auflaufschräge 25 anzubringen, die in Fig. 3 an dem Riegelzahn 24 des zweiten Verschlussringes 23 sichtbar ist. Vom Prinzip her ist es jedoch auch möglich, beide Riegelzahngruppen 22 bzw. 24 mit einer derartigen Auflaufschräge 25 zu versehen.In order to facilitate the assembly further, it is possible to attach at least one of the group of locking teeth 22 and 24, a ramp 25, which in Fig. 3 on the locking tooth 24 of the second locking ring 23 is visible. In principle, however, it is also possible to provide both sets of locking teeth 22 and 24 with such a run-on slope 25.

Wie sich aus der voranstehenden Erläuterung der ersten Befestigungseinrichtung 19 ergibt, stellt diese einen Schnell-Verschluss, ähnlich einem Bajonettverschluss, dar und kann zusätzlich mit einem aus den Fig. 4 und 5 ersichtlichen Sicherungsstift 27 versehen werden, der in das Lagergehäuse 28 und das Verdichtergehäuse 3 eingesteckt werden kann und an einem Ende einen Indikator 29 aufweist.
